Eddie Hearn vows to challenge Dana White and the new Zuffa Boxing project aggressively.
He told media he will not hand over boxing’s future with a handshake.
Hearn expressed skepticism about White’s plan and insisted he will defend the traditional boxing setup.
Hearn Upholds Boxing Tradition
Hearn dismissed Zuffa belts as lacking the history of WBC, WBA, IBF, and WBO titles.
He argued only top-quality fights can earn credibility for new belts.
Hearn questioned White’s claims about promoting Mayweather vs. McGregor and Canelo vs. Crawford events.
White’s Zuffa Strategy and Market Push
Dana White aims to centralize boxing under Zuffa, recognizing only Ring Magazine and Zuffa titles.
He plans a revamped ring, rule tweaks, and a ranking system independent of traditional sanctioning bodies.
White pursues broadcast deals to secure exposure, attract top fighters, and expand Zuffa’s influence quickly.
